Tired of last-minute revisions to IFRS 17 reports due to review pushback?

The situation this course is for

Even strong technical teams face delays when outputs require multiple iterations to meet audit or regulatory expectations. Rework erodes confidence and extends timelines.

Who this is for

Senior financial reporting specialist or compliance practitioner working on IFRS 17 implementation or ongoing disclosures at a global financial institution.

Who this is not for

This is not for junior accountants learning basic IFRS 17 concepts or teams still scoping initial implementation.

What you walk away with

  • Produce IFRS 17 disclosures that require fewer revisions during review cycles
  • Document assumptions and model choices with stronger defensibility
  • Align reporting outputs with auditor and regulator expectations upfront
  • Reduce time spent reconciling cross-functional feedback
  • Build reusable templates that maintain quality across reporting cycles
